Pharmacodynamic Monitoring of RO5459072, a Small Molecule Inhibitor of Cathepsin S. | LitMetric

AI Article Synopsis

  • * A newly developed flow cytometry assay measures the accumulation of a specific biomarker called Lip10, revealing that inhibiting cathepsin S leads to increased Lip10 levels in certain immune cells, particularly B cells and myeloid dendritic cells.
  • * In a clinical study involving the cathepsin S inhibitor RO5459072, results showed a dose-dependent increase in Lip10 levels among different individuals, highlighting the potential of Lip

Article Abstract

Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII)-restricted antigen priming of CD4 T cells is both involved in adaptive immune responses and the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases. Degradation of invariant chain Ii, a protein that prevents premature peptide loading, is a prerequisite for nascent MHCII-peptide complex formation. A key proteolytic step in this process is mediated by cathepsin S. Inhibition of this cysteine protease is known to result in the intracellular accumulation of Lip10 in B cells. Here, we describe the development and application of a neoepitope-based flow cytometry assay measuring accumulation of Lip10. This novel method enabled the investigation of cathepsin S-dependent MHCII maturation in professional antigen-presenting cell (APC) subsets. Inhibition of cathepsin S by a specific inhibitor, RO5459072, in human PBMC resulted in accumulation of Lip10 in B cells and myeloid dendritic cells, but not in plasmacytoid dendritic cells and only to a minor degree in monocytes. We qualified Lip10 as a pharmacodynamic biomarker by showing the cathepsin S inhibitor-dependent accumulation of Lip10 in cynomolgus monkeys treated with RO5459072. Finally, dosing of RO5459072 in a first-in-human clinical study (www.ClinicalTrials.gov, identifier NCT02295332) exhibited a dose-dependent increase in Lip10, confirming target engagement and demonstrating desired pharmacologic inhibition . The degree of cathepsin S antagonist-induced maximum Lip10 accumulation in APCs varied significantly between individuals both and . This finding has not been reported previously using alternative, less sensitive methods and demands further investigation as to the potential of this biomarker to predict response to treatment. These results will help guide subsequent clinical studies investigating the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic relationship of cathepsin S inhibitor RO5459072 after multiple dosing.
